Nice wine, but not worth the $, IMO. Prefer the Fait Main Sleeping Lady, and it’s really not close. — 5 years ago

From the oldest block of the Martinez vineyard, Clone 7. The wines has aged for 26 month in 100% new french oak. Typical of Pritchard Hill area, the wine has layers, texture and body. The old vines ripened perfectly. Deep earthy character complemented with aromatics of black current, blackberries and hints of vanilla and cedar. ONLY 150 Cases Made — 5 years ago

@Delectable Fleur de lys. Pinot blanc from Pfersigberg. Very champagne like minerality, even more so than the chardonnay (Empreinte) — 6 years ago

Spot-on, classic, perfectly delineated Saint Joseph. This is the elegant and pretty side of Syrah. Flowing waves of violets and black pepper lift effortlessly out of the glass with bright red fruits. Mid palate is silk and nearly weightless with fine tannins. Low alcohol and neutral oak profile allow for a very pure expression. Hints of game on the finish with a lingering minerality and a fresh, spicy peppercorn character that would be lovely with a variety of meats and herbs. Beautiful wine that I look forward to revisiting over the next 2-3 years. — 7 years ago

Rich and quite yeasty, an expressive, grippy chenin from a fantastic producer. Killer value at €11. Yellow fruit, citrus and herbs, rigid acidity. Almost too much on its own, needs some chicken in a cream sauce. A couple of years of softening will do it some good. — 5 years ago

A well made Grenache. Needs about 2 hours to spread its wings. A beauty. — 6 years ago

Best white of the day. M, R, and Vermentino in equal measures. Deft, light oak and 8 months in lees. Complex but not in your face. Very well made! — 7 years ago

McGah vineyard. Loads of banana peel in this. Nice SB, but at this price point it should be. — 5 years ago

Been a year since I had this, and boy was it singing. Ample peaches and assorted tropical fruits with a saline/glycerine note on the end. Beautiful SB that I highly recommend. — 5 years ago

This is for Eric Rodez's Empreinte Noire 2007. A blend of 62/38 Pinot Noir/Chardonnay from best parcels from six vineyards of the best year - 2007. Strawberry, red cherry, honey, honeysuckle, and pronounced toasty characters. Low acidity, medium+ intensity and finish. — 6 years ago

Very impressive. 100% handmade, with no electric machinery, from a parcel of very old Syrah vines. Tasteful level of extraction, which results in a rounded wine with balanced and five, yet nonetheless appropriately pronounced tannins. Plums and pepper dominate on the nose. Early harvesting has given this wine the acidity and freshness it needs to cope with the density from the extract and oak. Very good future. — 7 years ago

Rubis brillant
Nez fruit rouge groseille épices notes viandées
Bouche attaque un peu sur l alcool et sur l acidite
Milieu un peu aqueux
Finale longue sur l epice mais un peu trop sur l alcool et matière trop tendue
Pour moi un vin doit aller plus loin ici l empreinte du vigneron domine l appelation
